As humanitarian action falls short of addressing the climate crisis, children and young people are bearing the brunt. They make up half of the world’s population, but are least responsible for the greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation and other hazardous practices harming our environment.
We implement innovative green solutions, clean energy projects, and child-sensitive climate policies across education, WASH, and child protection sectors to empower youth and build climate-resilient communities.
Iraq is classified as one of the top five countries globally most vulnerable to climate change. This crisis is primarily manifested in the sharp decline of water levels in the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, driven by soaring temperatures, dwindling rainfall, and upstream water policies of neighboring countries.
As a direct consequence of prolonged drought and rising temperatures, Iraq's agricultural lands are suffering from rapid soil degradation and high salinity. This has led to a massive loss of vegetation cover and the disappearance of green belts around major cities.
At Green Imprint Organization, our climate, disaster risk reduction, environment and energy activities aim to:
Climate change and environmental degradation can be addressed for and with young people, through programmes for survival, health and well-being. We support local solutions that value biodiversity as well as nature-based solutions. And we act to protect children’s health from toxic metals, chemicals, hazardous waste, air pollution and other harmful biproducts of our societies.
We partner with the public and private sectors to advance clean, renewable and sustainable energy solutions. That includes areas like the programmes like solar water pumping. We help to electrify schools and health centres, and to enable community-level energy access for education and social protection programmes. We also engage in green skills training, adolescent and youth mobilization, cross-sectoral advocacy and policymaking.
As humanitarian action falls short of addressing the climate crisis, children and young people are bearing the brunt. They make up half of the world’s population, but are least responsible for the greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation and other hazardous practices harming our environment.
The investments we can make for the most vulnerable people now will ensure that they survive, grow and thrive in the face of climate and environmental shocks. Green Imprint Organization advocates for these investments, while supporting young people with the education and skills they need to help make the world a greener place.
Green Imprint Organization works to ensure that policies on climate, environment, energy and disaster risk reduction integrate children’s and young people’s views, concerns and solutions. Policies shape the world that the younger generation experiences today and will inherit in the future. In our climate change work, we support youth advocacy through tools and training.
Green Imprint Organization works to elevate and empower young people to meaningfully participate in the decisions and actions that affect them. We work with them to develop youth-friendly tools for climate action and give voice to young climate activists, innovators and entrepreneurs.
Protecting people from the effects of climate change and empowering them as agents of change require transformational solutions. Green Imprint Organization’s approach to climate innovation is aimed at finding such solutions to the most stubborn climate crisis challenges.
The impacts of climate disasters affect different women, children and youth differently, based on their gender, age, disability, location or migration status. Green Imprint Organization works to include all in climate and DRR decision-making so to they can be better prepared, protected, and resilient.
To ensure critical services are more inclusive, resilient to and prepared for disasters and climate change impacts, Green Imprint Organization works across sectors
